Armenia has delayed considerably the reform in science, stated the
economist Edward Aghajanov November 9 at the Pastark Club. For the
new policy on the scientific reform, Edward Aghajanov said he is not
acquainted with this policy because he was not invited to cooperate
on working it out. However, the economist thinks that the financial
possibilities of Armenia does not allow having both academic and
university science.

"Armenia is a poor country. I think Armenia needs a system of
scientific education. In order not to demolish the Academy, and not
to destroy and cause a painful transition, I think institutions of
scientific educational should be established, which combine both
science and education," says the economist.
